Le mariage des roses
Mignonne sais-tu comment
S'épousent les roses?
Ah! cet hymen est charmant
Cet hymen est charmant!
Quelles tendres choses
Elles disent en ouvrant
Leurs paupières closes
Mignonne sais-tu comment
S'épousent les roses?
Elles disent: Aimons-nous
Si courte est la vie
Ayons les baisers plus doux
L'âme plus ravie
Pendant que l'homme à genoux
Doute, espère ou prie
Ô mes soeurs, embrassons-nous
Si courte est la vie.
Crois-moi, mignonne, crois-moi
Aimons-nous comme elles
Vois le printemps vient à toi
Le printemps vient à toi
Et, des hirondelles
Aimer est l'unique loi
À leurs nids fidèles
Ô ma reine suis ton roi
Aimons-nous comme elles.
Excepté d'avoir aimé
Qu'est-il donc sur terre?
Notre horizon est fermé
Ombre, nuit, mystère
Un seul phare est allumé
L'amour nous l'éclaire
Excepté d'avoir aimé
Qu'est-il donc sur terre?
